It can apply to any media, yes (Hence One Work Wonder as a redirect name), but your example is more a Creator's Oddball because he was still composing music, just a different sort. (Compare Beethoven composing a single opera)

I think this example is enough of a detour to also count as They Also Did, which can overlap with One Work Wonder or Creator's Oddball but can also be an ongoing second field of work. A personal favorite example is Beatrix Potter, a brilliant mycologist who also wrote and illustrated some children's books.
